That is what the PAP will think. Eric Tan stirring up shit with the WP and he will be in their good grace. We have already saw how low they can go when they approved Tan Jin Lian during the PE
Ego nonwithstanding, the difference with Tan Jiak Sai ish dat Eric has been a WP stalwart for much of the last decade ....
Ego Notwithstanding (i have no idea what that expression means, totally lost in context), the difference between Tan Jin Lian and Eric is that Eric has been a stalwart member of WP for the last decade or so
with all due respect to the WP leadership, most of them are either lecturers, businessmen, Lawyers and social workers.. only Eric Tan and later Show Mao have any economic training finance working experience
With all due respect to the WP leaders, most of them are either lecturers, businessmen, lawyers and social workers. Only Eric Tan and Chen Show Mao have experience in the finance industry
many of the hare-brain socialists policy rike nationalising the transport and flat pegging to median income... no doubt come from him, since he continue to defend this policy on publichouse and TOC after resignation..
Even Gerald Giam acknowledge him as a mentor and say Eric taught him much about econ and finance
Many hare-brain socialists kept harping on nationalising public transport and pegging median incomes to flat ownership. It is without a doubt those came from him and he has been defending his thoughts on public housing on TOC after his resignation from the WP. Even Gerald Giam acknowldeged Eric Tan as his mentor on economics and finance

I hav no doubt that once Eric is in Parliament, he will work have with WP on a common agenda because of resource constraint and their long history back
I have no doubt that once Eric is in Parliament, he will work together with the WP on a common agenda due to a constraint on resources and their history
most importantly if Eric ish NMP, he will have to be nonpartisan and cant join in any anti WP coalition that Tan Jiak Sai ish formulating.... he will not become another Goh Meng Seng, bitter that party he help build has now left him behind...
Most importantly, if Eric is a NMP, he will have to be non-partisan and cannot be involved in any anti-WP coalition that Tan Jin Lian is planning. He will not be another Goh Meng Seng, who is embittered at the party that he has left behind
